WRITTEN and directed by Jim Cartwright, the Olivier Award-winning the Rise and Fall of Little Voice will play the Princess Theatre, Torquay, from February 25 to March 2 starring Beverley Callard as Mari Hoff, Ray Quinn as Billy, Duggie Brown as Mr Boo and introducing Jess Robinson as Little Voice.

In this heart-warming northern fairytale, shy Little Voice spends most of her time immersed in her late father's record collection and perfecting her astonishing impersonations, much to the dismay of her fun loving, out of control mother Mari.

Overheard singing by Ray Say, a hapless talent scout and Mari's man of the moment, Little Voice is propelled to stardom as Ray sets about creating the show of the century in a dingy local working men's club.

With an agent from London coming and everything counting on this one performance, Mari and Ray's ticket to the big time rests squarely on Little Voice's shoulders. But has anyone asked Little Voice what she wants?

Featuring songs from some of the world's most iconic divas including Marilyn Monroe, Shirley Bassey and Judy Garland, this is a night of star-filled magic to remember.
